Walnut Ridge

Walnut Ridge was very big, and there were a lot of very nice amenities, but it seemed a little more formal than what we were looking for. The staff was very nice. They had a swimming pool. The apartments were also very nice.

Mom likes the location of Walnut Ridge, and it was affordable. It was in the suburbs. She was on the ground floor, she wanted a walkout, and they accepted dogs. The people were very nice, and the staff was very nice.

Walnut Ridge Senior Living seemed fine. It is just that my dad doesn't want to move there, so he is not going. But the people seemed fine; the place seemed fine; and I had no complaints. The food was really good. The only complaint about the place would be that it was so huge. They had to make it taller, so that the hallways aren't so long because the old people can't make it through the long hallways.

When my mother-in-law visited a few weeks ago, she had Walnut Ridge on her list. We had just come off an amazing facility that had a great tour. Walnut Ridge was very close to being on par with that facility, but the tour itself wasn't as good(some people are just better at making pitches than others). This facility had almost everything: a great pool, a nice exercise room, Heated Parking areas and they take pets. The overall look is close to a nice college. The overall atmosphere was good and positive. The nurses and residents all seemed upbeat and acted as though things were good. One of the great features that I noticed was that they had on-site banking. With great staff, great amenities and a very nice facility there was little to complain about. One of the nicest amenities was the fact that they have guest rooms. They actually allow visitors to stay there. That was a huge sell for me. Overall, I loved the facility and it was closer than the previous facility we looked at.
